I think it's because you have a mono track in there. 

If you add this line:

        $s1=$s0 if (not defined $s1);

after the 'my $s0=...' line, then it should work with mono tracks as well.
(it will just copy the mono track into both channels of a stereo flac
file. - If you need to keep the tracks as mono, it needs an option in the
bit where it calls ecasound and the flac encoder. I could write this but
I'd rather not unless there's a need for it.)
